<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear Dr Wardak</div>
<div>According to clinical picture and x-rays, I think that your patient has next problems- severe calcaneo-valgus deformity of the foot, shortening of his leg, subtalar or ankle dislocation(?) and severe deformity of the distal end of tibia and fibula. I such case the reasonable solution will be - pantalar arthrodesis and lengthening of the leg. </div>
